Unsanity - Everything Goes
« on: March 14, 2017, 04:53:52 pm »

UNSANITY: Everything Goes!

You wake up in your house. For some of you, this is the second time you've awoken today. Phew, that dream was getting awful weird. As if anything could go like that in reality.

Odd dreams aside, you take a look around outside at the peaceful place that is Dodeca City. As you do, you notice something. You have some new neighbors, and they're waking up too!

You should probably go out and meet them, make some coffee, chat about life. Let's just hope things don't get too crazy...This feels oddly familiar though...

Rules

There are limits. But for the most part you can do whatever you like. Try not to make too much work for me eh?

Rolls
All actions are determined with a d10, through random.org or whatever method currently suits me. Modifiers will be added based on your current state.

You can over-do it, causing things to backfire. For example, getting a 10 with a +3 strength modifier while trying to pet a fluffy kitten will end up exactly the way you think. (Unless you think it'll be petted softly and gently.)

Spoiler: Roll meanings (click to show/hide)

Sign-Up Sheet

You can sign up at any time you want. Unless I close signups for some reason, but I'd put that in the title if I did, so go ahead.

Work on a potential forum game for my return to Bay12. Figure out parts that puzzled me before. Find more things to figure out that I can't. Work on another game instead of solving them. Get distracted and stop working. Remember it a week or two later. Remember I'm still on hiatus. Illogically, Be too ashamed to return yet. Repeat ad nauseam.

Finally have a game completely ready. Wait a week before posting it out of laziness.

Name: Victor Nix
What are you?: Cyborg
Gender: Androgyne
Age: Technically 34, in cyborg years, 2.
Appearance: A completely metal outer body, shaped to look like a 1950's traveling salesman. The internal structure is organic, and one can very clearly tell the eyes are still human. ( http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/04/10/article-0-1289AEFF000005DC-357_233x373.jpg , but metal)
Personality: A very sad and dour man, Victor's voice box unfortunately makes everything he says sound cheerful and upbeat, making him sound very happy if you weren't actually paying attention to the things he's saying. Half the time though, Victor is very manic when he finds things he's interested in, usually to other people's detriment.
List three of your favorite things: Mad science, walking, pessimism
Inventory: Pocket watch, Belt, Hat.
What? What is this?: Howdy friend! Isn't this the most miserable and pointless day? Just look at that sun!

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

Dodeca City: 7:00am

Name:Sastrei.

Against my better judgement, you are accepted. As you awake from your slumber, your tail brushes against a pile of old vhs tapes, knocking them down. Not that you know what they are, other than that they make good nest material. The sun's light slowly begins to brighten the store, filtered through the mothballed and dusty windows.

Your main exit and entrance to this place is a rusty garage door that you've learned how to lift. It hides you quite well, if you care about that sort of thing. You could probably break it down, but that would make it difficult to sleep here due to the light.

Nearby are a couple of slowly rotting deer carcasses that still have some meat left on them. What will you do?

You wake up in your room, surrounded by a few posters and a bunch of books on magic, the divine, and all that.

Looking out the window, you see some other neighbors. Perhaps you should go meet them.

Name: Victor Nix
What are you?: Cyborg
Gender: Androgyne

You sit up from your recharging station, taking a moment to look around at your room. There are various scientific implements and books here. There's so many you aren't quite sure you remember what most of them are for. Sitting by the door are a variety of good boots and shoes that were certainly made for walking.

Just what you needed, MORE neighbors. As if this place wasn't crowded enough. What will you do?

Name: AAAAAAAAAAA

What? What is this?:  AAAAAAAAAAAAA! AAAAAAAA. (A forum game, of course! Whoops, I broke the fourth wall.)

Why must you do this to me? Accepted. Screamingly incessently, you wake up inside your house on A Street. Your house is number A. Yeah, A street uses hexadecimal numbering for some reason. What will you do?

Name: King Harlaus
What are you?: A Swadian knight!
Gender: Male
Age: 50
Appearance: a weathered old man who has since retired from questing for the crown of his land. His blonde hair is graying out.

What? What is this?: A manhunter! I'm gonna break yer legs, noice an slar.

You awake in your manor, such a house befitting one of your knightly status. As you consider preparing a breakfast feast, you note that your fridge is filled entirely with the finest butter! Excellent! But wait what's this? Staring at you from the top shelf is a tin of "I can't believe its not Butter!"  Some fool must have slipped it into your shopping cart while you weren't looking, because there's no way you'd purchase such a thing! The scoundrel! You ready your finest weapons and armor, and head outside atop your loyal steed! Oh? New neighbors?

Maybe it'd be a good idea to have a chat. What will you do? (Sorry if I took too many liberties here. The idea just sort of bit me and wouldn't let go.)

After a length recharge session, you stand at ready inside your house.For a moment, you admire your extensive collection of psychology literature. Fascinating. But this is no time to stand idle. Apparently you have new neighbors! You know what that means, mission wise. What will you do?

I worry about this city. I really do. Betting pool is now open as to how long before total chaos erupts.

throw out the not-butter, and hold a lawn-feast to welcome the new neighbors before I conquer them! Be sure to bring steak, fruit, cabbage, and of course butter!
